September Wrap-Up / October Goals
2025 GOALS
2021 Total Wordcount Goal : 48,325 / 50,000
2021 Total Writing Days : 58 / 365
SEPTEMBER
Where on earth did this fucking month even go? I swear it was just August, and yet here we are.
September Wrap-Up : I finished the month with 20,874 words which is awesome. A total of 3 WIPs & 1 new work got words, with all words going into 4 Old Guard fics. One fic was finished and posted! I more than met my goal of 15k (yay!)
OCTOBER
My biggest goal is to get this silly runaway fic finished and posted, just carrying that one over from last month and hopefully it happens. Then dig in and get a good start on the werewolf thing, which I'm like 80% sure will be my next long fic to focus on.
October Wordcount Goal : 15k and I'm tempted to make it a little higher, but am resisting. The last week of October will once again feature houseguests and I never get much writing time done with extra people around.
October Fics to Focus On
☆ food truck au : because it's so close to done already, and this time I mean it, really I do. It's currently at 25k and I know where it's going, I just have to write it out. It did turn out to have some smut, so I'm bumping the wordcount accordingly. Estimated wordcount, 35k.
☆ werewolf!Nicky au : I've been obsessing over this one and think it's a good one to dig into this month with the Halloween vibes all around. Hopefully should make some good progress on it once I give it my full attention. It's currently at 9k, I'm honestly afraid of how long this one might run. Estimated wordcount, 40k (maybe??)
☆ ordinary objects part 2 : I'd like to try to keep up getting at least one thing posted per month, this one should hopefully be an easy-ish goal to meet? It's pretty much a short smutty thing, and those do tend to stay short for me. Estimated wordcount, 5k.

WIP Wednesday
Well, it has been a fucking week and my wordcount reflects that and wow it's been a bunch of monkey's paw nonsense. Like, I might be buying a new car! (Because my car might cost more in repairs than it's worth.) I finally got the motivation to wash all my sofa cushion covers! (Because they were barfed all over.) etc etc.
New words this week : 2696 words which is down a bit but still great all things considered!
WIPs worked on this week : 2, with no new WIPs (yay!)
The Old Guard
☆ food truck au : 2254 words which brings the total to 25,391 words and it's we're still going. Got feedback on the first chapter which was wonderfully motivating, second chapter is off to beta, and third chapter should be (knock on wood) finished up by this weekend.
☆ werewolf au : 442 words which brings the total to 8935 words and I really can't wait to be able to dig into this one properly.

WIP Wednesday
Sneaking this on in with just 20 minutes left of Wednesday. I feel like I'm slowly getting my life back together after all the disruption, but man has it been uphill. But there were words! There is a finished fic!! I am very excited about both.
New words this week : 5304 words which is down a bit but still great all things considered!
WIPs worked on this week : 3, with one new WIP.
The Old Guard
☆ cockwarming : 3762 words which brings the total to 3762 words and this isn't just another WIP my friends this one is DONE and it's already posted!! Read it here for now, I need to get better about crossposting everything to Dreamwidth as well.
☆ food truck au : 1300 words which brings the total to 23,171 words and it's still trucking along. Took a brief break from it to write cockwarming (what can I say, the heart wants what it wants) but I'm going to get back to it. I'm so very close to the end. All of it's partially written so it's just a matter of filling in the gaps.
☆ werewolf au : 602 words which brings the total to 8575 words and I continue to be obsessed with it.
